The Saga of Tippy

The other afternoon we got the following email from the apartment building's manager:

One of our resident's cats, Tippy, escaped this afternoon from their cat carrier in the garage on level P-2. The cat is a brown tabby. Please exercise extra caution as you drive through the garage. If you happened to see the cat, please contact the concierge with details regarding its location at 703-xxx-xxxx. We are working for a safe return of Tippy.


Poor little Tippy.  She escaped the cat carrier and was lost.  But don't despair for sweet Tippy.  The email below came the next day:

We are so happy to report that Tippy, the cat who was lost in our garage yesterday, was located and returned to her owner. Many thanks to all who aided in the search. It is amazing how this community comes together when one of our own is in need. Thank you for creating such a wonderful place to call home.

It almost makes you want to get a pet just to lose it in the garage.  You know, as a way of bringing people together.  So heartwarming.

Tippy and her mom were also appreciative because on the third day, the picture below showed up in the elevators:


You can all sleep well now, knowing that we live in that kind of building.
